Trump's deportation push gets boost from border state with massive plot of land

Let's be clear: I've been stating the same thing, over and over:

Mexico is not required to accept whomever the US decides to deport to that country.

You've not proved that Mexico is required to accept whomever the US decides to deport to that country.
For those who appear to believe that the sovereign nation of Mexico is required to accept whomever the USA decides to deport to Mexico:

Do you also believe that the USA is required to accept whomever Mexico (or another country) decides to deport to the USA?
 
And I suspect many of them will, maybe as many as half.

OK let's say you get your wish and 3 million self deport.
Let's say 1/3 work so that's one million jobs at more than likely low pay that now need to be filled.
Where are the people to fill those jobs?
 
Is English your language, you do not seem to grasp what has been presended to you, or do you simply enjoy being obtuse?
I've already explained that you've not proved Mexico is required to accept whomever - Mexicans, non-Mexicans - the USA decides to deport to Mexico.

I would like to see about 10 million self deport. I would let the economy sort itself out. It will be just fine. I am not worried.

Then you don't know how dependent our economy is on the labor provided by undocumented migrants.

Even more important is word will get out that America only wants legal immigrates that are vetted though our existing immigration process. They'll just quit coming. That's all Border Czar Harris needed to do. Just tell them in no uncertain terms to quit coming here. Apparently that's not in the Democrat's DNA to be able to do that.
 
Then we will let some back in as guest workers or legal immigrants
In the meantime, the economy tanks.

Guess who will be blamed for this? For the skyrocketing prices of items? For workers suddenly unemployed? For businesses that go under? For local economies whose tax bases are negatively impacted?

It's about time we find out. Truth is all the data in this area is fuzzy and politically biased. It's about time we ascertain what really is going on and then with that data we can formulate how to move forward.

No, it's not. You simply don't want to accept the fact our economy is dependent upon the labor provided by undocumented migrants.

I didn't say that. I said let it sort itself out. Biden and Harris created this mess. Trump will fix it, if people like you will let him. A demand for labor can be a good thing. It means higher wages for workers due to supply and demand, plus you won't have the competition of cheap labor artificially keeping salaries down. It's funny how our economy was so good before Biden let all these illegals in and now it's a shit economy. It's not sustainable to keep giving these illegals free housing, free medical and all the government handouts they are getting. That itself is a drain on the economy.

Let Trump be Trump and relax. It will be just fine.

Btw, why do you think E-Verify isn't widely-used?

The economy has already tanked and has not recovered to pre COVID Trump era economy. I can only see improvement in the economy once we get out from under the strain of having to support millions here illegally.

Is this an example of: If you can't stand the answer don't ask the question? Just define reality the way you want it to be.
 
What's Mexico got to say?
You guys are deluded if you think everyone you drive to the border will be accepted by Mexico. Do you know what 'undocumented' means?
It means they don't have any documents with US immigration because those typically require some sort of legal justification for being in the United States. It doesn't mean they don't know what country they're from. :rolleyes:

And usually the reason they're willing to work for less is because they don't pay any taxes on it and mooch off of the system (Medicaid, food stamps, welfare), so they're not working for less, they're just getting half their income from the government. Just because they're illegals, doesn't mean they're morons. They can figure out what the going rate is.

Too bad we can't check with the foreign authorities if it's true first without sending him there first. Not like we have phones, internet, oh wait... :rolleyes:

If what's true? The name and information the guy you have in hand tells you?
Okay, Bermuda won't accept me. What do you do now?
 
It seems many of the Trump supporters are a little turned on by the idea of "round them up and throw they out". Salivating....

And if Mexico doesn't take them, just dump them in the Rio Grande....what does it matter...after all they've been eating the pets, the dogs and the cats.
That’s weird.
 
More worthless political posturing by Greg "Hot Wheels" Abbott. smh

The US federal government owns outright MILLIONS of acres of Texas, they can use any of that if they needed to, but they wont need to because there wont be any "mass deportations".

Wonder why they didnt go ahead and do this 6 or 7 years ago? I mean....its such a "crisis". :rolleyes:
 
"I admit it. I snuck in from Bermuda. When does the plane leave?"
Trains and hot buses will be the more cost efficient method. Maybe they will let you play with the horn or whistle.

Then catch a boat from the coast of Mexico
